Social Media and SEO Twitter
After an exponential growth Twitter has now entered a steady phase of development. The users of Twitter have decided to utilise the large market of potential clients by creating their own sites that rely on Twitter. These are not giants of SEO but they are the extras, the add-ons, they’re the little bit more that could be the difference between 1st and 2nd.
Business directories are the staple of search engine optimisation and users of Twitter have acknowledged the need for a directory by introducing one for Twitter; Twibs.com, a directory that’s still relatively new, but is growing steadily. Its sole purpose is to help fellow users to find businesses on Twitter.
Another useful directory is justtweetit.com, similar to Twibs, this directory of tweeters organized by niche category, every listing comes with a link to the user’s homepage and Twitter page. This is a perfect way to expand your list of followers.
A further directory created for Tweeter is tweetfind.com, it can be operated as a search engine as well as directory. Tweet Find carries a few extras compared to Just Tweet It and Twibs, such as news, statistics and a daily updated section for interesting profiles.
Twitter’s main role within SEO is to generate traffic by directing people to your website for more information about the stories, tweets you leave.
